What's Up in March?
March, 2009 Bizarre and Unique Holidays
Since I have been doing a good job on my Reporting Tasks, I also thought it would be important to remind everyone that in March we will be having the first day of Spring. That would be on the 20th of March. Mom says that this is meaningless at this particular time, as it snowed last night, and we are supposed to have up to 9 inches this afternoon through tomorrow.
I'm not sure what her point is, but I guess cold weather makes her grumpy. Lily and I are excited because we love to drag each other through the whiteness. Ha!
However, I do believe it is important for everyone to know that March is the official month for these important groups:
- National Craft Month
- National Frozen Food Month
- National Irish American Heritage Month- designated by Congress in 1995
- Irish American Month.
- National Nutrition Month
- National Peanut Month
- National Women's History Month
- Poetry Month
- Red Cross Month
- Social Workers Month
- Music in Our Schools Month
Some of these are pretty bizarre, don't you think? National Frozen Food Month? Who thinks this stuff up? I am going to check with my Mouse Person and see if we can determine when it might be National Pitbull Month! Now that would be important!
And what about these two for the second week in March? Are they kidding us?
- 2nd Week National Bubble Week
- 2nd Week Crochet Week
But more important, here is a full list for each and every day. Check some of these out! At least there is "if pets had thumbs day" -- that's important, I think.

Please tell me why there is a National "Joe" Day but no National "Bob" day? I'm going to have to check EVERY Month now and figure out if someone wised up and fixed that later in the year! This is JUST NOT FAIR!
So ----- print this list and keep it on your refrigerator where you won't miss any important days!
Love and Licks,
